Mrs. Silly (1983)
Mrs. Silly, a woman who has lost her husband to another, is now about to lose her son to an expensive boarding school, compliments of her ex's money. Confronted with these losses, Mrs. Silly realizes she must regain her identity. Desperately trying to keep up appearances, to be cheerful, busy, and dignified, she only succeeds in living up to the derisive nickname she invented for herself.
